Retinol antiwrinkle creams
« on: January 23, 2007, 11:08:54 am »
I started using a Retinol Antiwrinkle cream, but it says it should not be used during pregnancy. Of course I canīt become pregnant, but this makes me think if Retinol can be absorbed through the skin and cause liver damage.
Does anybody know anything about adverse effects of retinol creams?
Retisidin contains: Octyl methoxycinnmate,4-Methylbenzylidene camphor, Octocrylene,Cyclodextrin (and) Retinol,Butyl meyhoxydibenzoylmethane,FDC Yellow nš 6 (C.
I. 15985),Tocopheryl acetate, Sodium carboxymethyl betaglucan, Methylparaben, CI 17200, Propylparaben,BHT,2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane-1,3- Diol, Retinol.

I use it and know people who've used it for years that haven't ever claimed any such problem.   Since it's a topical cream I fail to see how it would cause liver damage by using it on your face.
